[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To be fair pp, you keep saying on track for algebra I in 5th. Your kid sounds young and not actually in 5th grade yet. It’s weird wording. [/quote]
Sorry that you find the wording weird.  He joined the 5th grade AAP class for math as a 3rd grader.  He will join 6th grade class next year.  [/quote]

This does not mean he is on track for algebra.  Otherwise every 5th and 6th grader in aap would be in algebra.  Oh wait, you’re always right. My mistake. [/quote]
I’ll go really slowly, since you seem to have a poor grasp of reality. Almost every 5th and 6th grader would be in 5th or 6th grade AAP math and on track for 7th grade algebra.  My kid is in 6th grade AAP math as a 4th grader.  Do you really think a kid who is that far ahead is going to repeat 6th grade math 3 times?  It’s possible we would hold him back once and do 6th grade algebra.  That’s still pretty rare in FCPS to even have that opportunity.

But why am I even bothering to argue with you?  Clearly in your world, hitting the ceiling on WISC FRI, CogAT quantitative, and being skipped ahead 2 grades in math BY THE SCHOOL is commonplace and not at all suggestive of an outlier.  Sorry that I’m delusional and didn’t notice that every AAP kid is the same as mine.   :roll: [/quote]

NP.  To PP with math outlier kid, although this is the AAP forum and you'd think that it was a safe place to candidly discuss advanced students, people obviously are very easily triggered by anything that makes it sound like you're bragging (anonymously, which I find funny) or like your child is brighter than theirs (case in point, angry former teacher.)  They will jump up and down and say you're wrong, despite all [b]the evidence[/b] to the contrary and when that doesn't work they'll say it is because you "hothoused" him and/or none of it really matters in the long run anyway.  LOL, classic DCUM.   Don't sweat it, you know your child. [/quote]

Ha ha - the “evidence” is what she claims on this message board. Maybe it’s true and maybe it isn’t. I wouldn’t call it evidence though. [/quote]
